Giant Arctic Vortex Continues

 We've had this before.  It will break up.  Meanwhile, the Arctic spill that would normally be hitting us, is stuck in the vortex.


So, we will get a soggy Christmas.



The centre of the vortex is warm.  A fine chicken and egg question.  Is the warmth formed by the vortex, or was it an intrusion of warmth from the Atlantic plumes that caused the vortex?  Donno.


Same with the low pressure.  It's all connected - wow!


I switched to Wayland, and it's tough to get a screen recorder to work.

ps the slug of heat came from the Pacific.  This is how things used to work.

ps Naturally, this is warming forever.


The cold has retreated, and the jet stream is now flat - yada, yada.  

ps my fantasy is much better:  The giant Liver of Warmth is being attacked by the cold vortex orcas.  They should be done in a few days.

ps at 3:30 pm it is starting to break up as the Cold Orcas eat up all the warm shark liver.  Can't wait to see tomorrow.  I expect a full spill.
